Press Release Body = The annual ritual of spring cleaning will overcome
approximately 80% of women this spring. The primary goal? For 74% of us, we want to
get rid of clutter. Among the dark recesses of our homes we find clothes we haven't
worn, books we haven't read, and treasures that we forgot we have like the lilac
doily from Aunt Matilda, and the reindeer sweatshirt from Uncle Joe.

Over the past year, life coach Brook Noel, author of The Change Your Life Challenge:
A 70 Day Life Makeover Program for Women, has helped hundreds of women complete what
she calls, "Extreme Home Makeover: 10 Week Spring Cleaning Boot camp." Through
online participation, cleaning "drills," and contests these participants have turned
the dreaded task of cleaning into an annual adventure.

In the first year over 2000 bags of trash and donated goods left the houses of
participants. At the end of 10 weeks participants agreed that they had never had
such an organized home, along with a plan for maintenance. Noel attributes much of
the success of the program to camaraderie. "Conquering a closet can be a pretty big
feat, but our families often don't recognize the Everest we climbed. We can quickly
grow discouraged or give up on our cleaning plans. By bringing women with the same
goal together, we motivate one another and recognize each other's accomplishments."

The "cleaning drills/cleaning sprints" are a favorite part of the program. "We meet
online at designated times," says Noel. "We choose an area to tackle and race around
20-minutes. Then we report in, share our progress and visit for 10 minutes. Then we
do it all again. often for hours at a time!" These sprints have led to new
friendships and much laughter as people report in about the oddest thing they found.

Before and after pictures show the reality of the clutter we face (available upon
